Assertion. Capacity of a parllel plate ...

Assertion. Capacity of a parllel plate condenser remains unaffected on introduced a conducting or insulating slab between the plates.
Reason. In both the cases, electric field intensity between the plates increases.

A

both, Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is correct explanation of the Assertion.

B

both, Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is not the correct explanation of the Asserrtion.

C

Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.

D

both, Assertion and Reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

Electric field inside a conductor is zero. And electric field inside an insulator is reduced to `E = E_(0)//K`./ Both, the assertion and reason are false.
